BingoBoingo: Yeah. Today was dominated by a bunch of these not quite news things.

☟︎ mircea_popescu: that's not it. it basically was a mechanical device, worked sort-of like the scytale except on a chunk of a clay item
mircea_popescu: basically it had a place you placed the clay fragment in, and a rod which traveled the cracked surface.

mircea_popescu: asciilifeform if you feel like entertaining some crackpottery, suppose a hash function defined as follows : a) calculate PM ; pM ; P!M ; p!M where P and p are the perimeters of polygons of K sides circumscribing and inscribed respectively in the same circle and !M is the bitwise negation of M ; b) calculate V1 = 2pMPM/(PM+pM) ; V2 = sqrt(pMPM) ; V3 = 2p!MP!M/(P!M+p!M) ; V4 = sqrt(p!MP!M) ; c) calculate H = (V1 - V2) *
mircea_popescu: (V3 - V4) and finally d) return blocksize digits from the key-th position in H.
mircea_popescu: (and from 1 i see you like small blocks just abour as much as i do)
mircea_popescu: (basically - they're the classical (archimedan!) approximations of pi, for the text and reversed text, to an arbitrary precision. makes for an eminently tunable hashfunction)
mircea_popescu: it is apparently a lot easier to follow math in words than in symbols, EVEN FOR YOU
mircea_popescu: you took a second to answer after my 2nd line, minutes after the first produced nothing! timing attack on your brain!
mircea_popescu: anyway - being able to calculate pi itself does not actually help here.
mircea_popescu: because we're specifically collecting hte noise of the formula against the text and its mirror, rather than pi itself.
mircea_popescu: fuck the fucking computing-centring paradigm in crypotography
mircea_popescu is still curious to hear how people'd attack, if anyone cares.

polarbeard: well names are for humans, I think humans is what jurov is concerned with
jurov: iirc whole lxr thing is for humans
polarbeard: otherwise just check the sig date using pgp, last patch wins
☟︎ ascii_butugychag: jurov: for humans, but the idea here is that it ought to be able to swallow new patches
ascii_butugychag: so long as every patch ever submitted can be pressed to, the thing works correctly.
polarbeard: but actually you need to store all versions in some common place to do further checking, they should come with different filenames...
jurov: so won't you take exception with branches in lxr named vpatchname_YYYMMMDD or vpatchname_SHA1 ?
jurov: (latter bring the original idea)
mod6: ascii_butugychag: is this kinda what you were asking for yesterday? A vdiff of a pressed original patches (minus PVS fix) + shiva with pressed mod6's integrated patch + malleus regrind + shiva ?
mod6: please explain again so i can get this completed.
ascii_butugychag: i wanted a diff of a) the result of applying my original patches b) the result of applying yours
mod6: scroll to the bottom.
mod6: i did vdiff of the pressed out stuff.
jurov: not really, sigs were supposed to carry SHA1 of the patch they apply to
polarbeard: jurov: sha would be large and annoying, date +%s would be enough I think
jurov: just a cosmetic difference
mod6: <+ascii_butugychag> the two trees, diffed. << i believe this is what I have and what you're looking for, is it not?
mod6: its only on the right hand side.
mod6: the left hand side is just the ~original~ patches + shiva
ascii_butugychag: i wanted to see a diff of my tree (pvs, and my pvs fix, and shiva, and the shiva fix) vs yours (where the patches and their bugfixes were agglomerated)
jurov: sha1 because i wanted to track files by contents and sha1 was at hand
ascii_butugychag: the trees, as i understand, ought to be ~the same~ after each scenario
jurov: since name+date was decided, will use that
ascii_butugychag: jurov: how will you deal with sigs produced after the patch submission date ?
ascii_butugychag: also all existing vtrons, afaik, match sigs to patches by using the filename.
punkman: submitting patches with the same name kinda confuses things, maybe we could not do it instead?
jurov: punkman i said that, there were screams it's not vtronic
polarbeard: ascii_butugychag: why can't sigs have the same timestamp?
ascii_butugychag: polarbeard: because sigs submitted arbitrarily later than the patch !!!
polarbeard: it happens to be the unix time because is pseudo-universal
polarbeard: for the rate that patches get built I think it will be fine
ascii_butugychag: existing pgptrons do not, afaik, allow you to specify a custom timestamp
☟︎ ascii_butugychag: and i have no intention of asking people to use a patched pgptron simply so they can use v
polarbeard: you're talking about the file metadata?
jurov: anyway, matching the signature against all versions of one patch isn't so big thing to swallow
polarbeard: I mean a timestamp in the filename author_patch_thing_$(date +%s).vpatch
ascii_butugychag: jurov: sure but now every vtron would need to be rewritten to actually break down filenames
polarbeard: still don't see how we can't have author_file_unixtime.vpatch and author_file_unixtime.vpatch.author.sig
jurov: actually no, people will rename them manually, the curation as you intended all along
polarbeard: and that would not require renaming past patches actually
ascii_butugychag: jurov: how about we have the simple and sane solution - a name can be used once.
jurov: i am sooooo in favot of adding another hurdle to turdatron!!!
ascii_butugychag: demanding that world move and rearrange itself because somebody wants to reuse a name, is lunacy.
☟︎ jurov: !up ascii_butugychag
ascii_butugychag: ~patch submitter~ has the responsibility of coming up with a unique name.
ascii_butugychag: mod6, ben_vulpes, mircea_popescu, et al can produce curated trees simply by signing.
jurov: i agree, let's have unique names
polarbeard: I completely see unique names are a must, but if you don't replace you'll keep mistakes in the tree?
ascii_butugychag: every patch ever written ~is in the tree~ as it appears to archaeologists
ascii_butugychag: but the global, imaginary tree contains all vpatches ever authored
ascii_butugychag: your local one consists of all of the ones you downloaded for which you have the signatures you accept as valid

phf: fwiw deleting a patch doesn't "remove it" as such, but ensures that all descendants are unpressable
mod6: i guess that makes sense you wanted to see it that way - i thought the first way just because that way there ~is~ a diff to look at. but maybe this is better.
ascii_butugychag: phf: not so much unpressable, but that ~you~ lost the ancestors
ascii_butugychag: what i am expecting to see in a correct press is for the trees to be IDENTICAL
mod6: are they not identical?
ascii_butugychag: this means that the new patches have the same effect as the old.
mod6: well, hopefully my vtron works correctly.
ascii_butugychag is still not sure why it was necessary to discard the history and compress the old patch + its fix into a new one
mod6: i dunno either now, that was a giant pain in the ass.
ascii_butugychag: i mean hey, it's ~my~ history of bug-crapping that is being whitewashed over, so i shouldn't complain... but still
mod6: in other news, ive got a patch for V that's not only the fix for the post-press hash checking, but also for the problem when running the graphing tool with a node that has no decendants. and a couple of small cleanup things.
mod6: I'll probably just send the patch to the ML to recruit people to help me test over the next two weeks.
mod6: (with some instructions etc)
PeterL: if you have patches a->b->c and you decide to get rid of b, you should end up with a->b->c->(-b), not with a->c' (where c' is reground c without b patch) , do I understand correct?
☟︎ mod6: then if all is good, i'll roll up another publication of the whole thing & call it v99995
PeterL: is the antimatter patch the correct way to do it?
punkman: darcs also has "inverse patches" in their "theory"
ascii_butugychag: and i officially consider regrinds a thing to be avoided if at all physically possible
☟︎ ascii_butugychag: they smack of pious fraud, 'this was always perfect, born of the gods'
☟︎ shinohai: o/ mod6 didja get some sleep ?
PeterL: why not just regrind all the patches off the genesis and act like we fixed it in one blow?
punkman: don't we have to be careful with the antipatches though, so as not to introduce cycles in the graph?
ascii_butugychag: punkman: if a patch creates a cycle, it is ipso facto invalid.
ascii_butugychag: and it is trivially possible to unwind to arbitrary point without creating a cycle
PeterL: so in my example, if you add a patch d, it could equally be added to (-b) or (c') ?
punkman: ascii_butugychag: right, I guess good time to remind people
PeterL: wouldn't they be equal?
ascii_butugychag: 'To understand commutation, you should understand why we cannot keep our original patches, but are forced to rely on evil step sisters instead.' << seems like they solved it in the PRECISELY most-anti-vtronic way.

mircea_popescu: besides, the same selective memory thing that was deliberately put into deedbot works here as well. some dead chains will be forgotten before others.
topynate: a binding limit on how much of something is made
mircea_popescu: understand that immutable systems are VERY dangerous in principle. your world is mutable.
topynate: ah. no, i don't think you can stretch it that far. that would be like saying the total quantity of oil in the ground was a quota on oil production.
mircea_popescu: but it does meet your definition. "a binding limit on how much of something is made". it is binding, it is a limit, and it is on how much ofsomething can be made.
assbot: [MPEX] [S.MPOE] 2800 @ 0.00055747 = 1.5609 BTC [-] {2}
topynate: yes. so long as it's a convention with teeth. e.g. opec's oil production quota used to be a real quota because enforcible, now it isn't
mircea_popescu: in this sense the argument can be brought that while the early block limit as implemented by miners (using 60% of the 1mb blocks) WAS a quota, the actual 1mb block size is not a quota at all,
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 20:22:52; ascii_butugychag: felipelalli: you say this as if you had no choice ?
topynate: that would be remarkable; i can see the 1mb size being such a strong convention that no-one would have any expectation of successfully altering it, but unsure how it could have a universal nature like that of h
mircea_popescu: topynate well, consider that we can alter the value of h by altering the units of measurement. suppose all alteration of the 1mb block limit reduces to similarly a mere change in the units of measurement.
mircea_popescu: that'd be ONE way it could have such universal nature.
mircea_popescu: moreover, whether it does or might isn't the point. the point is, can you prove it doesn't have such nature ? because unless you can, speaking of it as a quota is iffy.
topynate: if it really is a universal constant, then there are a lot of wasted words on the block size limit, including my own - anyone trying to abrogate it will just fall flat on his face
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 20:24:49; danielpbarron: let me see if i can make one of those funny metaphores out of this: "that's like a cock that can get you pregnant, but you can't have sex with it"
mircea_popescu: topynate quite. consider, just for the sake of conversation, the situation of a child who rfound his father's musket.
mircea_popescu: now this child sees an apple in the tree, shoots at it and hits.
mircea_popescu: he then thinks to himself : "i could shoot as high or as low as i want, and the bullet wouldstill hit the apple, because i'm that special, and because that's what man made muskets for and how bullets work etc".
mircea_popescu: this IS of course true, provided the child manages to alter the powder charge too, so the bullet's speed and its angle are always in the right ratio.
mircea_popescu: we so far fired a single bullet out of a gun we don't even know who the fuck made. seems a lot of unwarranted cockyness all around for this little knowledge.
topynate: nice koan. so istm your point is that the effort on fiddling with the parameters would be better spent on understanding why it works in the first place?
mircea_popescu: similarly to how my argument is that rather than "improving" bitcoin, that time'd be better spent fixing the codebase as it is.
mircea_popescu: an argument persuasive enough that the whole foundation and the most serene republic is hard at work doing just that.

mircea_popescu: no i mean, #bitcoin-assets etc. trying to understand how it works, fixing the code etc.
topynate: ah, i see. the project in toto
mircea_popescu: and for the record, the name for the opposite attitude used here is "power ranger". because totally.

pete_dushenski: for a '-connect' private node ? probably, but every single '-addnode' public node, save asciilifeform's majick baltic node, seems to variously lag before restarting, at least as far as i can follow from bitnodes.io

pete_dushenski: the alternative (atm) is a ~fixed~ set of peers determined at random on start-up, as seen in 'multibit', which i can tell you from first hand experience this week has not been broadcasting select transactions from select keys. at all. and this is in no way fixable.
pete_dushenski: so if it sounds shitty to have a node blackholed, imagine having a ~privkey~ blackholed.
pete_dushenski: even after reviewing 'multibit' error logs, it was in no way clear to me how or why this should even be possible.
pete_dushenski: but that's what you get for sucking mike hearn's dong and expecting a cream soda to come gushing out.
assbot: Logged on 03-02-2016 20:27:37; ascii_butugychag: cow-man chimera - is grotesque.
pete_dushenski: so an idiot is me and i feel sorry for anyone who tries to do bitcoin casually because there's no goddam way.
pete_dushenski: bitcoin's too complicated, too barbed, too thorny, too messy, and too time-consuming for sortakindausers. this is obviously an asset in a great many ways, but it can still be frustrating for persistent folks. not that this is news to everyone beating prb into trb....

mircea_popescu: well... for a while i kept sending it nonraw dpastes, but hey.
phf: the set of people necessary to produce current set? or i possibly misunderstood the thread
mircea_popescu: phf well it's ok-ish in the sense that i have all the data to try and do the work by my own eyes.
phf: and what's the work?
mircea_popescu: but how i'd expect this to look is C (asciilifeform mircea_popescu mod6 trinque) D (asciilifeform), (mod6)
mircea_popescu: meaning that all those contributed and the press depends on either a set made out of alf or a set made out of mod6
mircea_popescu: phf and i don't need to see anything re genesis etc. just about the final destination.

pete_dushenski: "Blockstream, a tech startup that employs several core developers of the bitcoin protocol, has raised $55 million in venture capital to develop its sidechain technology and expand its global operations." [...] "Horizons Ventures, AXA Strategic Ventures and Digital Garage led the Series A funding round, which brings the startup's total venture funding to $76 million to date." << all this paper (and cardamon smell) and
pete_dushenski: y still can't buy 10% of asciilifeform's time nor 10% of mod6's. fancy that :)
